Plex supports the ability to search for (and use) subtitles from either the pre-play screen or during playback, for items in “movie” and “TV” libraries. This does require that the player app support the ability to do so. Subtitle search results currently use OpenSubtitles.org as the source.
Where is the subtitle located?
The subtitle is usually positioned near the bottom-center of the screen. But do you know that there are a lot of ways you can configure the display position of the subtitle? Not only can you choose the alignment as left, right and center, but you can also fine-tune its exact position.
